A imo, Waterfall isn’t about rotating media by time periods like daily, weekly, monthly—it’s more about sequential backups. That makes D the only one matching the FIFO rotation described here.

I’m with the idea that D fits best here, but just to add: Tower of Hanoi (C) also uses a rotation scheme, but it’s more complex and not strictly FIFO with daily, weekly, monthly media. So that could help narrow it down.

It’s D for sure. The other options don’t organize backups by daily, weekly, and monthly media in a rotating FIFO style like Grandfather-father-son does.

It’s D since only Grandfather-father-son uses distinct media types rotated FIFO.

That makes sense, but I’d also say option A doesn’t fit because waterfall backups follow a linear progression, not a FIFO cycle like D. So this supports D as the right choice.

Option D fits because Grandfather-father-son uses daily, weekly, and monthly backups in a FIFO cycle.
